G'day all
I'm just back in Australia after a few weeks in Ireland. Many new birds. I was hoping someone could have a look at these two terns. The lower one is a Common Tern (saw lots of these). Is the upper one an Arctic Tern? Not the best quality photo I know. The birds were roosting (maybe nesting) on the small island just offshore from Strangford near where the ferry goes across to Portaferry.
Where are the Sandwich Terns by the way? Didn't see a single one in Ireland.
Cheers
